Methotrexate-induced Transient Encephalopathy in an Adolescent and Young Adult Patient with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia.
Article in Internal medicine (Tokyo, Japan), 2021. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
A 17-year-old girl was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). After the administration of high-dose methotrexate (MTX) or intrathecal MTX, the patient experienced transient hemiparesis and motor aphasia. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging showed a high-intensity lesion in the bilateral centrum semiovale, and a vasospasm was detected in the proximal segment of bilateral A1 on magnetic resonance angiography. Edaravone was administered, and leucovorin rescue treatment was continued; eventually, the patient's neurological symptoms completely resolved. This finding suggested that vasospasm might be a mechanism underlying MTX-induced transient encephalopathy in adolescent and young adult patients with ALL.
